The

| Buffalo Mountain (12,777 ft) is a massive dome at the southern end
of the Gore Range. Its eastern profile is well known to travelers
on Interstate 70.
The turning of aspens and a dusting of snow on Buffalo Mountain are clear signs of autumn in Summit County. |

The Tenmile Range splits the southern end of Summit County into two
valleys, the Blue River and Tenmile Canyon. To the south it is connected
to the Mosquito Range in Park County. To the north (immediately to
the right of this picture), it is separated from the Gore Range by the mouth
of the Tenmile Canyon.
In the foreground is Lake Dillon. |
| Red Peak (13,189 ft) shares its name with several other Colorado Rockies. Our Red Peak is the first mountain north of Buffalo in the Gore Range. Here it stands watch over the town of Silverthorne. |
